Glaucoma is a potentially blinding condition that cannot be easily defined. There are various types of glaucoma which may vary in symptoms from none at all to sudden pain and redness. There is a characteristic optic neuropathy, or damage to the optic nerve, which results in progressive loss of visual field. The most important risk factor is an increase

Surgery for refractory glaucoma
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Ophthalmology, 1996Abstract Purpose:To determine the surgical outcome of mitomycin trabeculectomy in patients with refractory glaucoma. Methods:Sixty‐six eyes of 52 patients with refractory glaucoma underwent mitomycin trabeculectomy. Mitomycin was applied for five minutes only once during trabeculectomy. The follow‐up period was six to 61 months.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2010
To summarize the recent advances in the management of patients with coexisting cataract and glaucoma.Although some evidence suggests that cataract surgery may be useful in the clinical management of eyes with angle closure glaucoma, recent studies show that the decrease in intraocular pressure (IOP) following cataract surgery alone in eyes with open ...

Nonpenetrating Glaucoma Surgery
Survey of Ophthalmology, 2008Nonpenetrating glaucoma surgeries have been developed in recent years in order to improve the safety of conventional filtering procedures. The goal of nonpenetrating filtering procedures is to reduce intraocular pressure by enhancing the natural aqueous outflow channels, while reducing outflow resistance located in the inner wall of the Schlemm's canal

Nonpenetrating Glaucoma Surgery
Ophthalmology Clinics of North America, 2005Nonpenetrating glaucoma surgery continues to evolve and improve. New technical refinements and increased experience among its practitioners have led to improved efficacy and longer duration of filter survival. These refinements include the use of intraoperative and postoperative antimetabolites, adjunctive space-maintaining devices, and postoperative ...

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1997
Most cases of glaucoma in small animals ultimately require surgical treatment for long-term control of intraocular pressure. Surgical procedures that have the potential to preserve vision in acute cases are categorized into those that reduce aqueous production (cyclodestructive techniques).

Anticoagulation in Glaucoma Surgery
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2017Anticoagulation medications are used commonly, particularly in an elderly population. There are many systemic diseases and scenarios that require modulation of coagulation to prevent serious adverse outcomes. While there is some consensus about their use in cataract surgery, there is less certainty about their management with glaucoma surgery. Glaucoma

Anaesthesia for glaucoma surgery
Current Anaesthesia & Critical Care, 2010Injections of local anesthetic behind the globe could potentially damage the optic nerve, resulting in visual field defects or even blindness. Glaucoma patients may be at increased risk of this occurring, because of increased susceptibility to pressure/ischemic damage.
